Five scrap pickers picked the wrong place to attempt a bag snatching as they were thwarted by security guards. And one was “taught a lesson” by intervening bystanders in the capital’s Sen Sok district on Monday.
Pouncing on a woman as she was leaving a wedding, the group of junk collectors failed to collect her pocketbook and were chased by three watchmen and a mob of locals, who handed out an on-the-spot punishment to the one picker they pinched before police arrived to take him away.
